Karl Bos Phenomenal record - and very thankful to have a beautiful sounding squeaky clean copy to play out with Favorite track: El Beto.

pmd Quality re-issue from Paul Murphy, one of the London jazz dance scene innovators. Particularly love the flute work out on El Beto but it's a "must have" release all round.

about

A STUNNING RHYTHMIC FUSION OF LATIN AND JAZZ WITH A UNIQUE SPIRITUAL PULSE.

If ever a record called be called a lost masterpiece then this record more than deserves that epithet. First released on an obscure French label in the 1970's it might have sunk further into obscurity and left no trace of it's passing but somehow a handful of copies turned up in various Jazz shops in London where it was snapped up by DJ Paul Murphy who was then playing to the embryonic jazz dance scene, based at the very first Jazz Room club: The Horseshoe in London's Tottenham Court Road, a decaying, seedy, sticky carpeted old West End ballroom that had seen better days. This and a select few records in a similar vein were being played to an appreciative audience who demanded tough raw percussive rhythms overlaid with some furious jazzy soloing and whenever this record hit the turntable it left even the most demanding groover sated.

It's a really fantastic collection from this barely known reedman and his excellent band which also features a guest appearance by American Legend Horace Parlan who is best known for his Afro-Cuban session "Headin' South" on Blue Note Records.

Superbly produced by drummer Peter Schmidlin, who has conjured up a spiritual modal mixdown of Afro-Cuban & Jazz extended percussive workouts that are uncompromising in their groove and which manage to sound both timeless and modern. The record is being re-released with the original striking artwork, guaranteed to be a talking point.

"Killer Argentinian saxophonist Hugo Heredia (on) a bonafide Electric Ballroom classic that’s been really hard to find for years... and it’s got Horace Parlan on piano!"
GILLES PETERSON
"Thanks Jazz Room Records for the rerelease of a stunning and truly epic spiritual album by Hugo Heredia. Each song is an intense and rhythmic exportation from an amazing multi instrumentalist.
For me, this is just the right blend of latin rhythms and jazz power all wrapped up in an adventurous spiritual vibe! Essential summer release."

"What a great album...Reissue is top notch" DJ MELODY NELSON
"Filled with beautiful melody and complex rhythmic patterns. The sort of sounds that bring even long dormant Jazz dancers back to that shiny floor for one last, fast, dance" PABLO BLANQUITO
"Reissue of the year, hands down!" MIKE CHADWICK JAZZFM
